Mystery thread

Mysteries? You mean you're into reading about the history, theory, and/or practice of the occult?

I myself have been exploring these topics for fifteen years...

I would suggest the following books for those interested:

>The Golden Chain
>Philosophy as a Rite of Rebirth
>Philosophy and Theurgy In Late Antiquity
>Orpheus and the Roots of Platonism
>Corpus Hermetica
>Orphic Hymns
>Chaldean Oracles
>Greek Magical Papyri
>Techniques of Graeco-Egyptian Magic
>Techniques of Solomonic Magic
>Encyclopedia Goetica Volume I-III
>Three Books of Occult Philosophy
>Transcendental Magic
>Introduction to Magic
>The Hermetic Tradition
>Shamanism: Archaic Techniques of Ecstasy
>Collected Works of CG Jung
>Star.Ships
>Chaos Protocols
>Occult Traditions
>Alchemical Traditions

These books form the core of my practice at the moment. Probably the most frequently visited books on my bookshelf. Pretty much covers the gamut of the Western Esoteric Tradition.

I feel like I am making some serious metaphysical gains these days. I approach things from a sort of chaote shaman perspective. I'm really resonating with Gordon White at the moment hence why two of his books are on the list.

What books even go in this section, bookstore-wise? Everything good typically goes in plain fiction or in sci-fi/fantasy.
